Answer:

the bigger number is 42

the smaller number is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

use algebra to denote:

let x be the bigger number

let y be the smaller number

x+2y=62...(1)

3x-y=116...(2)

x=62-2y...(1a)

substitute

3(62-2y)-y=116

186-6y-y=116

-7y=116-186

-7y=-70

y=-70/-7

y=10

therefore x is:

x=62-2(10)

x=62-20

x=42

HELPPPP PLEASEEE IM BEGGING SOMEONE PLEASE PLEASE HELP

Given:

The figure of a rhombus QRST.

To find:

A. The value of x.

B. The measure of angle RQP.

Solution:

A. We need to find the value of x.

We know that the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors. It means the angles on the intersection of diagonals are right angles.

m\angle RPS=90^\circ                       [Right angle]

(5x+15)^\circ=90^\circ

(5x+15)=90

5x=90-15

5x=75

Divide both sides by 5.

x=\dfrac{75}{5}

x=15

Therefore, the value of x is 15.

B. We need to find the measure of angle RQP.

From the given figure, it is clear that

m\angle RQP=(2x+3)^\circ

Putting x=15, we get

m\angle RQP=(2(15)+3)^\circ

m\angle RQP=(30+3)^\circ

m\angle RQP=33^\circ

Therefore, the measure of angle RQP is 33 degrees.
